His Love Is Real But He Is Not
I rented A.I and watched it last night. After all the bad press and people telling me it was too long and boring, I was pleasantly surprised. Stanley Kubrick purchased the rights to Supertoys Last All Summer Long from writer Brian Aldiss in order to make it into a feature film. Unfortunately, Kubrick died in England just before filming was to begin. Why did I mention all that? Because the movie definitely had Kubrick influences. He has a different way of telling stories that I've always liked. And yes, I liked this one. Partially because it depicts the end of the human race like I envisioned it. We will one day make machines smarter than us. They will be our legacy.
The shots of Manhattan underwater were awesome. I had a dream like that once before....I liked Teddy and I thought the story was well told. It was sad. It made you feel for something that you knew was not real despite what your eyes told you. I definitely recommend it, but watch it with an open mind. I think a lot of people just didn't get it (like a lot of Kubrick's other films)- not that they weren't intelligent enough but that they just didn't want to believe.
Anyway, I should have been studying. I have an IT test tomorrow. Should be easy but I never know. I rode about 45 miles today which gives me 533 since Jan. 3rd. Way ahead of last year but behind 2001. I'm taking the next 3 days off so I don't over train.
I had some visitors yesterday and I hadn't told a soul (except Amy). So that was nice. I was waiting until I had tweaked the site before sending the link out. Thanks guys for reading.
